Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tsunami protection levee capable of effectively resisting tsunami, storm surge or wave attack. Background technique
  • the cause of the tsunami usually comes from the seabed, such as submarine earthquakes, volcanic eruptions or submarine movements. If there is a meteorite falling into the sea, it will cause a tsunami. The tsunami occurs once a year on average, causing great losses to civilization.
  • the tsunami flow rate is consistent. From the sea surface to the sea floor, the flow rate of the tsunami is almost the same. When it spreads to the coast, the flow rate of seawater is very high (if the wave height is 10m and the flow velocity is also about 10m/s), it suddenly forms a "water wall", accompanied by a rumble, rushing to the coast, it can Breaking the embankment poses a serious threat to human life and property.
  • the tsunami wave swept the western Pacific islands at a speed of 700km/h. In just 14 hours, it reached the Hawaiian Islands of the United States. When arriving at the Hawaiian Islands, the waves were as high as 9 to 10 meters. The waves destroyed the breakwaters on the west coast of the Hawaiian Islands, and washed down a large number of trees, telephone poles, houses, and buildings along the embankments, flooding large areas of land.
  • the tsunami wave has completed about 17,000km and reached the Japanese archipelago on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.
  • the waves are still very turbulent, the waves are as high as 6 ⁇ 8m, and the maximum waves are as high as 8.1m.
  • the rolling waves are raging on the coastal cities of the Japanese islands.
  • the vessels that parked in the harbor, the harbors along the coast, and various construction facilities were greatly damaged.
  • Cities, villages and some houses along the Pacific coast, as well as some people who have not yet escaped, are caught in the sea by this sudden wave.
  • the water flooded the mountains, the choppy, the embankments, houses, trees, buildings, etc.
  • the Chilean tsunami also affected the former Soviet Union on the Pacific coast. Near the Kamchatka Peninsula and Sakhalin Island, the tsunami wave surged to about 6 to 7 meters, causing damage and casualties to houses, boats, docks and personnel along the coast. In the vicinity of the Philippine Islands, the huge waves affected by the Chilean tsunami are also as high as 7 ⁇ 8m, and the coastal cities and rural residents have also suffered bad luck.
  • the table below shows the Indian Ocean tsunami wave arrival time and death toll statistics.
  • the storm surge is a serious natural disaster that occurs along the coast of the ocean.
  • the storm surge also known as the "meteorological tsunami” or “storm tsunami” refers to the abnormal rise and fall of the sea caused by dramatic changes in wind or air pressure. Sometimes, it comes with a typhoon or cold wave, especially when the storm surge occurs and the astronomical tide is superimposed, it is easy to cause extraordinarily increased water.
  • the Chinese patent specification CN1258784A discloses a novel anti-collapse dam, which is characterized in that a ripstop flood control layer and a sandstone layer are installed on the river side of the dam, and the dam has a certain effect on preventing collapse and increases the flood control capacity of the dam.
  • 3 ⁇ 4 it has the structural characteristics of a general dam. From the appearance, it consists of an inclined surface facing the ocean and a bottom surface connected to the ground. From its cross section, it is a narrow bottom and a wide bottom. The trapezoid.
  • Such a trapezoidal protective levee has a static protective effect on the gradually rising seawater; however, when a huge wave such as a tsunami strikes, the seawater ripples with great horizontal velocity and impact force to the bank, trapezoidal section
  • the protective levee exposes the following two weaknesses: First, when the tsunami waves hit the coastal protection levees, the force of the mountains and the seas will instantly act on the protective levees, so that the entire surface of the levee in the sea direction will be subjected to the huge impact of the waves at almost the same time, which is easy to ruin the embankment. accident.
  • the Chinese patent specification CN1804224 discloses a method for preventing a tsunami, which is a method for relieving the tsunami impulse, which is based on the prevention of the construction of a levee by cement on the existing coast, and is characterized by being made of a synthetic material.
  • the large water bag wall is placed in the sea water 50 to 80 meters away from the beach. It is composed of a ⁇ ⁇ net to form an anti-tsunami wall. It is made of synthetic material to make a large water bag, and the upper half is the air bag on the water surface. In the lower half of the water, the part floating on the sea can be designed into various kinds of landscapes such as animals, plants, figures, and art.
  • the traction rope springs reduce the cushioning force, and the above devices are fixed under the sea with metal inverted forks.
  • This method of preventing tsunami has a certain effect on mitigating the impact of the waves on small waves; but for larger waves like the tsunami, the impact of the waves is huge, relying on "fixing with metal forks"
  • the traction rope spring under the sea slows down the impact force. It is powerless. That is, the huge waves caused by the tsunami will undoubtedly destroy the anti-tsunami wall made up of large water bags floating on the sea. Moreover, such an anti-tsunami wall composed of a large water bag has disadvantages that are difficult to maintain and difficult to maintain after construction. Summary of the invention
  • the present invention also provides a method of protecting a harbor with a tsunami protection levee to protect a vessel parked in a harbor from a tsunami attack.
  • the tsunami barrier of the present invention has a special shape.
  • the side of the protection levee facing the ocean is a curved surface. Viewed from the cross section, it is a curved trapezoid with a narrow upper bottom, a wide bottom, and a curve facing the ocean.
  • the curved trapezoid is close to the coast. As the lowest point, the vicinity of the point is relatively flat. From the lowest point to the vicinity of the protective levee, the curve gradually bends upward, its bending radius gradually decreases, and the center of curvature gradually decreases.

  • the garden art has been cultivated as a protective levee that can effectively resist the tsunami attack. It is also a peaceful, beautiful and beautiful coastal city landscape.
  • the method for protecting a harbor by using the tsunami barrier of the present invention is: constructing a tsunami barrier at the entrance of the harbor according to an appropriate terrain or shape of the coast, the barrier being built on the coast and extending into the seawater at the entrance of the harbor;
  • the levee did not completely close the inlet waters of the harbor, but vacated an unconnected sea area as a passage for the ship to sail.
  • the harbor constructed in this way can not only facilitate the navigation of ships into and out of the harbor, but also reduce the passage of waves into and out of the harbor by using the tsunami protection levees, which greatly weakens the impact force of the tsunami waves and makes the vessels parked in the harbor free. Attacked by the tsunami.
  • the tsunami protection levee is provided with a parabolic curved surface facing the ocean side, when the tsunami occurs, the waves carrying the great force rush toward the shore, and the first contact of the surf front is the lowest surface near the shore. Position, then the front end of the wave gradually bends upward along the shape of the curved surface. At the same time, the huge impact force of the sea wave is transmitted to the foundation of the protective levee along the normal direction of the curved surface. After the foundation receives a huge impact force, the reaction force is taken from the ground.
  • the surface is transmitted back to the waves, causing the waves to continue to move along the tangential direction of the surface, because the reaction force of the surface of the levee gradually changes the direction of movement of the waves, causing the waves to initially rush toward the shore, and finally along the tangential direction of the surface. It rushes vertically into the sky, and the seawater that falls back vertically and slams down also has an inhibitory effect on the impact of the waves.
  • the tsunami protection levee of the present invention has the following two significant advantages: First, when the tsunami wave directly hits the levee, the force of the levee is gradually weakened by the surface of the levee, so that the wave impacts the bank The way from the instantaneous impact to the gradual impact, the impact of the waves is greatly reduced, and accordingly, the protective dyke is balanced and the ability to withstand the damage of the waves is improved.
